This is my story

(but you can be in it)

Today is a sad day. Tici, our division's accountant, has gone on to bigger and better things, as they say. That is, she finally got out of this place and to a much better job. Jobs, actually, as she's still considering two offers. Today is her last day here.

I'm happy for her, I really am. This is a great career move, and she needed to expand and move on. She's been here for 5 years, which is about 3 years too long for her to be so constricted in her career.

But I'm unhappy for myself. I plan to keep in touch with her, naturally, but I'm going to miss her being right at hand. She has always challenged me (in every way), encouraged my spiritual side as well as my professional life, supported me, and gave me good advice. That last item is the most amazing - how many people do you know who actually give good advice?? She's tough and fun, demanding and stimulating, and warmly affectionate. I hate to lose her, and yeah, I cried, but I'm still happy for her.

One funny item - she always said she would get me a tiara to signify my position as the office Drama Queen, and today, she actually gave me one! LOL!
